Chapter 79 - 79: Great Potential to be a Big Bad wolf
Old Madam Zhekova suddenly uttered, “Oh! Why did you come back at noon?”
Adrian Zhekova looked surprised, “Eh? Did I come back at a bad time? What is going on here today?”
Old Madam Zhekova silently watched him put on an act.
They had invited Cindy Clarke to prepare lunch today, but Adrian Zhekova returned at noon.
If anyone claimed that Adrian Zhekova wasn’t trying to see Cindy Clarke, who would believe them!
“You must be hungry coming here at this time, right? Sit down quickly and let’s eat together,” Old Madam Zhekova hurried to say.
“Isn’t that inappropriate? You all gathered here so rarely, and I would be out of place here,” Adrian Zhekova pretended to decline.
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Zhekova said, “Alright, then you should get back to work quickly. Don’t waste our time here in our gathering.”
Adrian Zhekova: ‘ .
“I haven’t eaten yet, and I’m a bit hungry. If you insist on inviting me, then I’ll stay,” Adrian Zhekova immediately said. Old Madam Zhekova sneered.
Just a little more acting, eh!

Adrian Zhekova looked at the dishes on the table and laughed, “Aunt Evans’ cooking skills have really improved. These dishes have become more and more exquisite.”
Old Madam Zhekova: ‘
Her grandson certainly had potential in being a big-tailed wolf.
Aunt Evans smiled and explained, “Today, the Old Madam invited a private chef to cook. I heard that Miss Clarke’s cooking is very good. All the Old Madams happen to be free today and rarely can gather like this, so the Old Madam invited her specially.”
After finishing, Aunt Evans quickly went back to the kitchen to help Cindy Clarke.
Adrian Zhekova casually asked, “Grandmother, where is Grandfather?”
“Today is our ladies’ gathering. He is a grown man and has no business here,” Old Madam Zhekova said, “I sent him out to play.”
Adrian Zhekova:
He felt like he had been snubbed, too.
In the kitchen,
Cindy Clarke finished preparing the last appetizer dessert.
It was a hawthorn jelly.
After eating too much of the main course, this appetizer could help digestion by relieving greasiness.
“Aunt Evans, I’ve made extra portions of each dish for you to eat when you have time,” Cindy Clarke said.
Aunt Evans never expected that Cindy Clarke would be so thoughtful as to take care of her too.
“You really are meticulous,” Aunt Evans exclaimed with joy.
Only the last hawthorn jelly remained to be served.
Cindy Clarke followed Aunt Evans to the dining room.
Aunt Evans walked ahead to show the way, and Cindy Clarke followed.
Upon entering the dining room, Cindy Clarke looked towards Old Madam Zhekova in the main seat.
Seeing that Aunt Evans had already gone to the other side, Cindy Clarke had no choice but to go to Old Madam Zhekova’s side herself.
She placed the hawthorn jelly in front of Old Madam Zhekova and the three other Old Madams, saying, “This is the dessert after the meal, hawthorn jelly, which helps digestion and stimulates the appetite.”
Cindy Clarke wanted to say goodbye, but when she looked up, she was stunned to see the person sitting across from her.
Cindy Clarke: “…”
Adrian Zhekova???
What’s going on!
Why is he here!
Cindy Clarke had completely forgotten what she was going to say, staring at him with her mouth open and wide-eyed shock.
Adrian Zhekova raised his eyebrows slightly at Cindy Clarke.
Cindy Clarke’s mind was a mess right now.
She thought about the plaque hanging at the entrance, with the large words “Zhekova Residence” written on it.
Earlier, when she was at the door, she thought it was quite a coincidence that this family also had the surname Zhekova.
She ended up meeting Adrian Zhekova here.
So, Adrian Zhekova was… the one in this house…
Cindy Clarke’s mind was in chaos, but now was not the time to think about so much.
She took a deep breath and asked Old Madam Zhekova, “Old Madam, do these
dishes suit your taste and that ot the other ladies( Is there anything that needs improvement?”
